We had a deal. But the lobbyists didn’t stop and today member states blocked the due diligence directive. @larawoltersEU in plenary today.

@TheProgressives @larawoltersEU For the record, to put things right: „The lobbyists“ are sitting on both sides, pro & con #CSDDD. The pro NGOs, some heavily subsidised by German federal ministries, have been extremely busy in pushing the current text. And - in a democracy, the EU27 are entitled to their vote!
@TheProgressives @larawoltersEU Truth is: It's an unbalanced trilogue compromise! Part of the blame should go to the previous Spanish EU Presidency (PSOE) for not consulting sufficiently with stakeholders, i.e. Member States, BEFORE signing the deal!
